To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that 1, PAUL F. KREIMER, a citizen of the United States, residing atNor- Wood, in the county of Hamilton and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in HameHolders, of which the following is a specification.

Myinvention relates to harness attachfmentsythe object being to hold the hame In the drawing: Figure 1 is a pers ective- View showing my invention in use. a section on a line corresponding to 33-11". of Fig. 1 showing my invention as it is applied 'g. 2 is to a collar when in course of manufacture. Fig. 3 1s a perspective view of my invention as above noted l My invention as used on collars in course of manufacture is composed of the-brace I hav-- ing the curved brace2 adapted to embrace the roll 3 of the collar 4, and having the; longer memberwof said brace 2 bifurcated to form lugs 4 and 5. The logs 4" and 5 are" adapted to extend through suitably disposed incisions 6 in the roll 3 and have o'penin s7 and 8 through which they may be secure by the rivets 9 from the interior side 10 of the roll 3. The incisions 6 may be madeand the braces riveted in place before the roll is formed, a suitable means being employed to locate the braces so that when the collar is completed the braces I will be in the proper positions. The brace 1 is-of such form as will accommodate it to the hame 22 to hold it firmly in' position-against the collar 4 when the hames have been properly'secured by means of the usual strap devices 23 and 24,

and is provided with'the-short base member 25 to reinforce the attaching means against the pressureof the hame 22 when tending to leave the proper position.

It is 'only necessary to attach twobf the braces one to each side of ther0ll3 in the r251 tive positions illustrated'in Fig. '1. The'simplicity of construction and means ofattachmg my invention make it a factor of economy in accomplishing the purpose intended; Being entirely inde endent of other parts of the harness except t at to which it is attached,

, it in no way interferes with the regular functions of said harness.

I claim: M

1. In a hame holder, a collar provided with incisions, a brace, a bifurcated base member on said base adapted to extend through said incisions, and-means for. securing'said bifurcated base member to said collar from the interior concave surface of the roll rim of said collar, substantially as and for the purpose specified.

2. In a hame holder, a collar-provided with an incision", a brace, a base member on 'said brace adapted to extend throughsaid incision, and means for" securingsaid base -member to said collar from the interior icon-' ca ve surface of the roll of said collar,sub- -'stamtially as and for the purposeset forth.
